Shape and Negative Space

This session was about the understanding of shapes and negative/positive spaces. Using negative spaces the task was to draw a still life arrangement only drawing the outlines of the shapes on the table, ignoring the finer details and just going off of the silhouette of the objects. This resulted in a silhouetted image of the scene, then the negative spaces of the were filled in, so instead of shading and adding more lines or detail to the objects, detail was instead added to the empty spaces around them. Leaving an images of a black background with a line encompassing the whole mass of objects.
